Chapter 36 Borrowing Books and Learning from the Ancestors
Chen Hong gradually stared at Mei'er, thoughtfully, and only smiled for a long time, and said, "I don't want the lady to have such knowledge, so I suddenly opened my mouth." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoIt's just that I'm often lazy in the next place, if I can get a virtuous lady to accompany me, always urge and warn, how lucky it would be! I don't know, I don't know the lady, that, see if there is this blessing below? β
These words have the meaning of temptation, but they are still unpleasant.
Mei'er understood and said with a smile: "The head hangs over the beam, and the vertebral thorns are thorny." If an official takes fame, he only needs two things, the beam and the vertebrae, so why do you need any virtuous lady? If the lady can supervise and warn, then wouldn't the official have the name of fearing his wife? There is that dominatrix-like existence in front of the bed, but I am afraid that it will be too late for the officials to regret it! β
"No regrets, no regrets." Chen Hong was gradually made to smile bitterly by Mei'er's sharp words, and then picked it up, so he had to say that he didn't regret it, but his eyes looked at Mei'er eagerly.
Mei'er was stared at embarrassed, lowered her head, twisted her belt, and said in a low voice for a long time: "The slave family hates people to coax me the most, if you want people to believe it, you must always swear an oath." Besides, it's up to you and me to do this. β
"Now I'll swearβ" Chen Hong gradually stood up, went straight to the incense burner next to the house, picked up the incense, lit it and plugged it in, and raised his hand to swear.
A chuckle caused Chen Hong to gradually look back, Mei'er had disappeared, and her voice was still echoing in the room, "If it really lasts long, why rush for a while." Rest in peace, and we'll talk about that later. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
It was close to noon, and it was the hottest time of the day.
The construction site of the city has been closed, and the laborers are sitting or lying down to rest under the hastily erected tents here and there, and a few stout women are cooking in a cauldron not far away, and the smell wafts in the wind.
In the temporary supervision room, Jia Shi listened to Meng Jiucheng's work report while looking at the progress data of the project.
"At the beginning of the humble position, I was still rusty, and the work was still exploring and adjusting, thanks to the help of colleagues such as Sun Zhisi and Ni Chengcha, now it is smooth." Meng Jiucheng reported respectfully, and did not forget to say a few kind words for others.
Jia Shi nodded, pointed to the project materials and said: "This official can also see that the progress of this project is getting faster and faster, although there are also reasons for the new hands to become mature hands, but the fair and sufficient distribution of rice and grain, and the physical recovery of the laborers are also important factors." β
"Mutual understanding." Meng Jiucheng slapped a sycophant, but didn't say much to show his merits.
In the past, most of the government opened warehouses and set up porridge factories to provide relief to displaced people or disaster victims. But there are too many loopholes in it, and greedy officials often do tricks. For example, they embezzle rice grains, porridge is so thin that they can see people's figures, or mix sand and chaff and wood chips to be at best.
In this way, the victims may not starve to death, but they will not have enough to eat, so they will naturally have no strength to work, and the progress of the project will be slowed down.
According to Meng Jiucheng's suggestion, the amount of work was used as the basis for distributing rice and grain, and the government used relief tickets to directly distribute rice and grain to the displaced people who were recruited to work. Coupled with other monitoring measures, displaced people are no longer exploited for their work. This not only prevents corruption among officials, but also allows the displaced laborers to have enough to eat and reduce their grievances, and also promotes their enthusiasm for work.
Jia Shegang has just inspected the construction site, and everything is in order, even small things such as drinking boiling water and not being allowed to defecate in the open have formulated rules and regulations, which are managed by the foremen of each contractor, which shows how detailed Meng Jiucheng's work is. So, he's quite happy with that.
"Little Meng Abssi has really worked hard." Jia Shi closed the document and said with a smile: "This official sees that all the measures have been implemented, and the person who implements them is also effective, you can also be a little leisurely, and you don't have to do everything." β
"Xie Xianggong cares." Meng Jiucheng bowed down to show his gratitude, and after a pause, he said: "Sitting here, I can handle some affairs in a timely manner without delaying the construction period." Besides, you don't have to wield a shovel or pickaxe, and you don't get tired. Well, if the prince is gracious, I want to borrow a few books, and I have time to read here, and it is not boring. β
Jia Shi laughed twice, did not hide his appreciation, and said, "Okay, that's good." But if there is anything in the official's study, you just have to go and get it, and you can just inform it. β
"I want to borrow "The Complete Works of Xiangshan" first." Meng Jiucheng was not polite, and directly named the name.
"The Complete Works of Elephant Mountain?" Jia Shi was a little surprised, looked at Meng Jiucheng, and asked, "Why do you want to read this book first?" β
Later generations will know Wang Yangming, and "heart learning" is a big fire. However, there are very few people who know the founding patriarchs of the Song and Ming dynasties of "Xinxue".
Lu Jiuyuan, because he lectured at Xiangshan Academy (located in Guixi County, Jiangxi Province), is known as "Mr. Xiangshan", and scholars often call him "Lu Xiangshan".
He is as famous as Zhu Xi, but his opinions are often different, and Lu Zhu has had several debates. Lu Jiuyuan advocated that "the heart (I) is reason", saying that "the universe is my heart, and my heart is the universe". Ming Wang Shouren (Yang Ming) inherited and developed his learning, established the "Lu Wang School", and set up the culmination of mental learning, and its influence could be unprecedented.
Meng Jiucheng wants to obtain knowledge nutrition from it and integrate it with the "heart science" in his memory. On the other hand, he also has the intention of taking the opportunity to flatter Jia Shi and win his favor.
"Xiangshan Gong has a saying: people's hearts are the soul, and this reason is clear; Everyone has a heart, and the heart has reason. Meng Jiucheng replied calmly: "I think it makes sense to be lowly and I want to learn about it." After a pause, he added: "The lowly position is shallow, and does not seek to understand, if the minister has golden words to give him, the lowly duty is grateful." β
Meng Jiucheng's rhetoric can be described as slick, and it also strikes at the weakness of Chinese people, who like to talk about learning with others, and Jia Shi is no exception.
"Zhu Xi's words of 'reason' focus on 'why it is', while Lu Jiuyuan's words of 'reason' focus more on life ethics." Jia Shi groaned and said: "It is to slander the Lu as crazy Zen by the Zhu people, and the Zhu people as the vulgar learning. According to the official's opinion, the two gentlemen are the same as the Zhigang Chang and the same support for the famous teaching, although the opinions are not the same, but the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. β
Seeing Meng Jiucheng's thoughtful expression, Jia Shi smiled and said: "If you have time to read the Complete Works of Xiangshan, you can also read the "Notes on the Four Books". β
"Humble and teachable." Meng Jiucheng laughed twice and agreed.
The children can be taught! Jia She's heart was even more fond of it, and he talked with a smile for a while, and saw that the adoptive mother of Meng Jiucheng's family came to deliver the meal with a food box, so she politely declined the invitation to eat together, and left happily with a few errands.
Along with Liuqiao and a servant woman, Guo Chen also came, and when Jia Shi was sent away, Meng Jiucheng greeted him and invited him into the house to sit down and talk.
"A certain family only learned that Brother Meng asked Chen Erlang to do things for Tang Niangzi." As soon as Guo Chen's buttocks sat down, he complained to Meng Jiucheng, "Thinking about that Chen Erlang, who is stupid in reading, and has no power to restrain chickens, how can a certain family be inferior to him?" β
